In this article, I wanted to update my experience with the third season of Sandbox. I remember that participating in the missions is absolutely free and it is possible to win prizes in $Sand and the Alpha Pass. I reached level 4 and completed 154 out of 1017 missions (EP). You are not required to complete all missions. To reach level 5, you just need to complete at least 300 missions (EP).

Level 5 gives you the maximum amount of tickets that can be received from missions. However, there are also daily missions that guarantee other tickets. Basically you play, complete at least 300 missions (EP), reach level 5 and get maximum tickets. If you are drawn, you win Alpha Pass 3 and all prizes in Sand (250 $Sand). It is possible to increase your tickets by carrying out daily missions (for example visiting a game experience, completing 5 quests in 24 hours, etc). There are 44 days left for the season! If you are not yet registered you still have time! At the end of the season, Alpha Pass 3 will be drawn. How much are the Alpha Passes from previous seasons worth? We cannot know the exact value, but please be aware that whoever won the Alpha Pass 1 earned around $ 2000. Now prices are down: 209 $Sand (about $ 190).

Then there are other prizes (guaranteed):
1) Leaderboard (the first 10,000 players who complete missions faster, such as Formula 1 qualifications, are rewarded. You can try missions as many times as you want and improve your completion time. The first gets 30,000 $Sand)

2) Holding at least 1 Sandbox NFT or 1 Game Avatar (Bored Ape, Snoop Dog, Steve Aoki, World Of Women, etc) unlocks you guaranteed Sand rewards:

Ok ok, it's not easy to have the avatar of Bored Ape (floor price: 75 ETH), Clone X (floor price: 5 ETH), Cool Cats (floor price: 2.80 ETH) or World Of Women (floor price: 2 ETH) ). However, there are also cheaper solutions such as those from DemiGods Of Rock (0.07 ETH), Steve Aoki (0.13 ETH) or Snoop Dogg (0.14 ETH). Obviously it is not necessary to have a "famous" avatar. You can also create a free one. I have the avatar of Snoop Dogg (The Doggies).

Now I will talk a little about the missions carried out. It is typically possible to earn EP within minutes of playing. I also recommend a little trick: on Youtube you will find many players who as soon as a new mission comes out, they upload the video! Search the mission name and find everything! This will save you a lot of time if you don't know how to proceed with the mission or if you don't find a certain object in the metaverse. Of course, if you find a mission difficult, you can abandon it. Remember that you have to score 300 EPs (300 missions) out of over 1000. Some complex ones can be skipped. What is the difficulty of the missions? Most are really simple, others require a minimum of skill. As an initial mission I found the Avenged Sevenfold one a bit complex, where it was necessary to jump on blocks hundreds of meters high. However, just become familiar with the jumps and the gameplay of the character. The music will obviously be themed with the experience. I remember that Avenged Sevenfold is a Metal band.

An absolutely hallucinatory and psychotropic experience is that of Steve Aoki. In particular "Playhouse". There are particular color games, disco music and it's a shocking experience. This happens when you have to access the various secret portals and unlock them. Music also creates that hallucinogenic atmosphere that you will find in some places.

The Walking Dead ones are also beautiful. In this case the scenario will be characterized by zombies and the undead. Atari's gaming experiences, on the other hand, were very old school, let's say the 80s. In this case, be careful because there are many enemies that will hinder you but the missions are not difficult and do not require special skills.

Another particular experience was that of "You're a Big Boy Now", you read the writing that anticipates the carrying out of the missions. The land is strange and gives a sense of tranquility but also of desolation. The missions here are quite easy. The main event is "Go To The End Of The World Party" and you will read that there is a 24 hour countdown. The peculiarity is that, apart from Eva and a guy in the middle of the road, you will not find anyone in this land. Absolute desolation. When you reach your final destination, you will read a sign that says "Your Death Is Welcome".

Then there are great classics of the past such as the Smurfs for example, another of the partners of the metaverse. In one of the first missions you will have to search for Papa Smurf (he is hidden under the water!). I believe that their land will also be unlocked over the next few days.

Then there are many other missions that will take you to China, on a ship, in a disco, on very high skyscrapers, in a mission you will even have to get on a hot air balloon. In the same there is a shooting range with a gun or combinations of passwords or colors to solve (if you don't know how to do it: use Youtube!).

For example, in the missions of Warner Music Group there will also be quiz to solve. Of course, you can answer several times until you get the correct answer. There is also a question about Pink Floyd! I also bought the WMG pass. In the description of this NFT, they talk about privileges such as Physical Merch Item, Legendary / Rare NFT, playlist building, tickets to concert and much more.

In general, for the moment, my vote is very positive. Find ingenious. You will also find QR codes scattered in some lands. I would just like to point out that being still in "Alpha", sometimes the graphics are really confusing (due to the 360° view) and have bugs.

Have you decided to play and finally enter the web 3.0 too? The steps to follow are these:
1) Sign up on Sandbox (just email/password + KYC; KYC is essential to receive rewards). Remember it's a "play and earn" but it's "free to play"! 
2) Download the game client to your computer and log in
3) From the Sandbox site you can monitor the various missions, progress, rankings, etc You choose the mission from the map, click on "play" and the client you downloaded opens. The Sand that you will earn at the end of the season, you can sell them for other crypto or in fiatcurrency on Binance. As mentioned, try to reach at least level 5 (300 EP) to unlock the maximum of tickets and therefore of prizes. And if you also carry out some daily missions and giveaways, you will get even more tickets.
